Stainless steel silos and a rusted cylindrical tank rise above the concrete yard at the north-eastern corner of the Peters Ice Cream Factory in Warwick Farm. Brown brick walls meet corrugated iron rooflines at different heights. Vines push through window frames on the upper storey. The loading apron is bare, oil-stained, cracked. Harsh midday light flattens everything against a clean blue sky.

The series
Peters Ice Cream Factory
Peters Ice Cream Factory opened on 4 November 1939 on the bank of the Manning River at Chatham, a suburb of Taree. The opening drew approximately 5,000 people. Peters Creameries built the plant for around £60,000, with a steam-driven capacity of 1,000 gallons of milk per hour and a boiler house running four Babcock and Wilcox boilers. Cream was delivered by boat from farms along the Manning River for four decades, a trade that ran until around the 1970s. The factory made ice cream, butter, milk powder, oil, and yoghurt, and was the main employer in the Manning Valley until it closed in the late 1990s. The building still stands at Chatham, deteriorating. Listed in 1990 on the local heritage register (Greater Taree, now MidCoast Council).
